Enlarged Pores

Enlarged pores are one of the earliest signs that your skin’s microstructure and oil regulation are out of balance. Often appearing in the T-zone or cheeks, visible pores result from sebum overproduction, collagen loss, and disrupted skin turnover.

At Eternal Vitality Clinic, we understand that enlarged pores are not just a cosmetic concern. They reflect deeper hormonal, inflammatory, and structural factors. Our approach targets the root causes, activating skin renewal and restoring dermal support from within.

Area(s)

  • T-zone: forehead, nose, chin
  • Cheeks and perioral area
  • Neck and décolleté (in certain cases)
  • Post-acne zones with texture irregularities

Duration

Each session typically takes 45–75 minutes, depending on the combination of procedures (e.g. resurfacing, microneedling, laser, or LED).

Frequency

  • Initial program: every 2–3 weeks for 4–6 sessions
  • Maintenance: once every 4–8 weeks
  • At-home support: daily, personalized regimen for long-term refinement

What to Expect

How it Works

We minimize pore visibility by:

  • Purifying and balancing sebum without disrupting the microbiome
  • Activating collagen synthesis to firm the pore walls
  • Accelerating cellular renewal for smoother surface texture
  • Calming inflammation and oxidative stress to prevent further pore stretching
  • Supporting hormonal balance if systemic causes are contributing

How We Do It

  1. Sebum Regulation & Skin Purification
    • Gentle cleansing and exfoliation protocols
    • Enzymes + organic acids: lactic, salicylic, malic
    • Non-comedogenic deep decongestion – safe for even reactive skin
  2. Cellular Stimulation & Structural Remodeling
    • Microneedling with peptides, exosomes, MG-BL
    • LED phototherapy (blue, red, near-infrared)
    • Exosome + retinoid-based topicals to restore tone and texture
  3. Resurfacing & Texture Refinement
    • Chemical peels with TCA, glycolic, mandelic, azelaic acids
    • Controlled dermal injury to trigger renewal and rebuild elasticity
    • Result: visibly smoother, firmer skin with less pore shadowing
  4. Internal & Hormonal Support
    • Lab diagnostics for testosterone, cortisol, insulin, DHEA, vitamin D
    • Supplement support: zinc, omega-3s, DIM, adaptogens
    • IV infusions to support detoxification and skin repair pathways

Side Effects

  • Mild redness or dryness (especially after peels or microneedling)
  • Temporary flaking as the skin resurfaces
  • Rare: sensitivity or purge phase with barrier-compromised skin

All treatments are tailored to skin type, age, and medical skin classification.

Time to Full Effect

  • Immediate glow / smoother feel: 3–5 days
  • Reduction in pore visibility: after 2–3 sessions
  • Full remodeling effect (collagen regeneration): 8–12 weeks

Questions? We’ve got answers.

Can enlarged pores be completely removed?

No — pores are part of your skin’s natural structure. However, their appearance can be significantly minimized with structural support and skin remodeling.

Why do I have large pores even in my 20s?

Pore visibility isn’t just age-related. It may be linked to androgens, PCOS, insulin resistance, stress, or incorrect skincare habits — especially if your skin is oily or acne-prone.

How many treatments will I need?

While some improvement may be visible after a single session, a full program of 3–6 treatments is typically recommended for long-lasting texture refinement.

Can these treatments be combined with others?

Yes. Resurfacing, microneedling, exosomes, and radiofrequency or laser can be combined in a personalized plan for faster, more comprehensive results.

Are these treatments suitable for men?

Absolutely. Pore refinement is highly effective for all genders. In fact, enlarged pores and oily skin are common male concerns, and our protocols are tailored accordingly.
